Penneyroyal Chorus (EHX Small Clone)

[twin1965]

Great looking build all round Love the look of etched face plates. The PCB looks great too. I like the way you've laid out the components.

This chorus does sound good. I hadn't played through one before but I think this will stay on my pedal board for a while

Great! Is that a faceplate or etched directlty?
Very cool!

[Stomptown]

It is etched directly. I mask the sides with paiters tape and leave the borders on the face exposed to give a 3 dimensional look. The angled sanding also seems to add depth. I usually mask the boarders before sanding so I don't sand them off but if you look closely, I forgot to do it with this one. Luckily it was a nice deep etch and I didn't lose the boarder...

That is an amazing build. Love the in- and outsides on that one. How did you achieve that rusted-look after sanding?
I finally have to move my warhammer-painting-stuff from my parent's house to Vienna, could achieve some cool effects with the ink colours, i assume.

How did you achieve that rusted-look after sanding?

I think what you are referring to is just smoke and mirrors! It's mostly lighting and iPhone filters.

 Nice build!
I got one of the group buy PCBs on the way and cannot wait to make this one.  However it is in the back of the line because I have Haberdasher's modulation madness duo  to complete first...  LOL 
Cannot beat old school modulation pedals

nice build, pcb looks great.

only another note, where did you get that dc jack? any idea if mouser carries them?

[Stomptown]

Those are Lumberg 9VDC jacks.

You can also buy them from chromosphere and his shipping from Austrailia is cheaper than you will get from Newark! Last time I checked he was out of the Lumberg brand but he also sells clones that look exactly the same and are reported to be high quality. Plus they are a bit cheaper than the lumbergs! Here is his store:

If you have to have the real ones right now the only USA supplier I know of is Newark:

I think BLMS has them as well...
